A fascinating and comprehensive history, this book explores the most important transformation in twentieth century economics: the creation of econometrics.Containing fresh archival material that has not been published before and taking Ragnar Frisch as the narrator, Francisco Louca discusses both the keys events - the establishment of the Econometric Society, the Cowles Commission and the journal Econometrica – and the major players - economists like Wesley Mitchell, mathematicians like John von Neumann and statisticians like Karl Pearson - in history that shaped the development of econometrics. He discusses the evolution of their thought, detailing the debates, the quarrels and the interrogations that crystallized their work and even offers a conclusion of sorts, suggesting that some of the more influential thinkers abandoned econometrics or became critical of its development. International in scope and appeal, The Years of High Econometrics is an excellent accompanimen

Editorial : 'A fascinating book.' Kevin D. Hoover, Duke University, USA in the Journal of the History of Economic Thought

Without reading the book I tried to monitor the market activities in the profile that had been explained to me. I told myself, “How complicated can it be, really?” And then I looked into a few sites and was quickly overwhelmed by the choices and everything I had to consider. Brax is everything Tess thinks she wants and she will do anything to make him happy, even if that means putting her wants and desires aside. I thought this would be a good supplement but it really didn't add anything.. Navy - in fact, I had a roommate for six months or so that was a black male, but we maybe spoke a hundred words during that time. Sherman's unique perspective as a CO medic is a story we all need to hear.. I reccomend this book and the easy to follow along steps to show you things you never knew about Autocad.. Whenever he refers to market indexes making highs and then getting back there after a downturn lasting several years, he uses the raw index numbers and doesn't take dividends into
